I made this tonight! It was so good and so easy to make! Everyone in my family loved it which is quite a big feat since my teenage son is a picky eater! Thank you for such a great recipe. This will for sure be a repeat!!
As I was making this I realized there was no direction for the second half of the whole garlic cloves. Were they to go on top of the pork chops?
